Sabotage of France's high-speed rail network is causing major disruptions just before the Paris 2024 Olympics. U.S. officials suggest that anarchists or extreme leftists might be behind the attacks, though investigations are ongoing. Fires set along key TGV lines have severely impacted train services, including those transporting Olympic athletes. SNCF reported deliberate damage to rail installations on multiple lines. French Transport Minister Patrice Vergriete condemned the "coordinated malicious acts," while Sports Minister Amélie Oudéa-Castera is working to manage the fallout for athletes and travelers.
